    Well done, can I suggest a not so sharp point on the dies? Many/most/all internally reinforced hoses can be structurally damaged by point-loading, hydraulic hoses are an excellent example of this as are PTFE. Skives/sleeves need to hold the hose firm on the tube but not crush the hose. Do you have a stop fitted or go by feel?
    Loved the use of keysteel for the dies, leaves options open for cheap changes and sizes.
